Note
For clarity, the figures show the engine removed from the frame.
Move the piston of the cylinder being checked to tdc of the power stroke: in this condition, all the valves are closed and the timing shafts come in neutral position and, therefore, free to rotate; check to the valve clearance on the cylinder head on which it operates.
Checking the opening clearance
Using a feeler gauge, check the clearance between the opening rocker arm (a) and the lowest point of the camshaft lobe (b), taking care not to compress the rocker arm return spring.
The value must be within the specified ones (sect. 3 - 1.1, Timing system/valves).
If not, remove the opening adjuster (3), as described in paragraph "removing the valves" (sect. 9 - 4.5), And replace it with one of suitable height to obtain the prescribed clearance.
Note
Opening rocker arm shims measuring 1.80 To 3.45 Are available as replacement parts: the size is punched on the shim.
Checking the closing clearance
Using a feeler gauge, check the clearance between the closing rocker arm (c) and the highest point of the camshaft lobe (d).
The value must be within the specified ones (sect. 3 - 1.1, Timing system/valves).
If not, remove the closing adjuster (1), as described in paragraph "removing the valves" (sect. 9 - 4.5), And replace it with one of suitable height to obtain the prescribed clearance.
Note
Closing rocker arm shims measuring from 2.2 To 4.5 Are available as replacement parts: the size is punched on the shim.
Checking the engine timing
Set the engine to the configuration described for the "checking and adjusting
the valve clearances", previously indicated.
Install tool 88765.1188 (G) in the spark plug bore to determine the piston tdc,
the gauges (h) on the tool 88765.1518
And the timing check tool (degree wheel (l) 887 ...
Dashboard diagnosis
This function identifies any abnormal vehicle behaviours.
The dashboard activates any abnormal vehicle behaviours in real time (errors).
At key-on (at the end of the check) one or more "errors" are displayed in red
(only if they are active).
When an "error" is triggered, the indication (r ...
